Research Officer

This role is ideal for health science or medical graduates (MBBS/equivalent) with postgraduate qualifications in public health or science (including PhD holders) who possess at least 3 years of experience in community projects. Candidates must be willing to travel extensively and work in remote or tribal areas, demonstrating strong operational and management skills for project implementation, data collection, and research activities. It suits individuals seeking project-based work within a prestigious medical institution.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this position is purely temporary, co-terminus with the project, and offers no right to claim permanent employment. Those unwilling to travel to rural and tribal areas, or without the specified academic qualifications and relevant experience in community projects, will not be suitable. Candidates expecting additional benefits beyond the consolidated salary should also consider other options.

Working with AIIMS Jodhpur, a Central Government institution of national importance, offers significant prestige and a valuable addition to one's resume. While the position itself is temporary (initially for 6 months), it provides excellent hands-on research and public health experience, particularly in tribal health. This experience can be a strong foundation for future roles in research, public health, or NGOs. However, long-term career progression directly within this specific temporary role is limited.
